    Did a crappy photo shop of how my car would look with the red vinyl overlays on the tail lights.
    what do you guys think?

    I've got some Orcal vinyl if you want to try it out. I'm up by Discover Mills Mall if you want to swing on by for some.

    Looks goods. Can you post the original for comparison?

    There are a few members here who have painted their GR tails red, see Face and Bixs

    The clear in the middle looks good, don't change it.

    Yes. I agree with FACE and bixs.
    Subaru made the right choice in getting rid of the euro taillight design.
    Factory, it looks really good. There's no need to change it.

    Edit... I thought they were like the hatch being all clear. I too would leave them OEM with the cutout.
